Chapter 71
“What’s the matter?”
“Where were you thirteen years ago on March 14th? Did you ever find yourself on Pine Street in Frant
City?”
“I can’t recall.” Sylvía turned her head away, maintaining an icy facade.
It had been ages, how could she possibly remember?
“Alright, I’ll ask you another question.”
Edgar wasn’t fazed, he persisted patiently, “Do you remember a car accident thirteen years ago on March 14th? Three people died on the scene, and only a young boy in the backseat survived. He was rescued by a girl.”
Why was he asking that?
Could that young boy have been him?
Sylvia looked into his probing eyes. Part of her memory was stirred, and she found herself remembering fragmented images.
She did rescue someone that year, but it was pure happenstance.
Sylvia never took it to heart.
What’s more, her visit to Frant city that year was driven by a very important matter concerning the Smith family’s secrets. She had no intention of sharing this with Edgar, nor did she want him to continue his investigation.
It was too risky. Sylvia didn’t want anyone else entangled in it.
“No, I don’t know,” Sylvia answered coldly. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
Edgar instinctively tried to stop her, but her icy gaze made him pull back his outstretched hand.
“Don’t forget your role as the fiance of Nancy, Mr. Fallen. Perhaps you should pay more attention to your bride–to–be.”
Sylvia scoffed at him, unlocked the door, and left.
Just as Sylvia turned her back, she noticed a flicker of disappointment in his eyes.
